Arthur Becker has a Tribeca real estate office that acts as a studio with full-fledged workshop along with paintings and sculptures he created. The office is located near the site which will be the first ground-up he develops alone. The project is estimated to sell for $52.5 million and will be located at 465 Washington Street. Arthur Becker is 66 years old; he is a former Bear Stearns stockbroker who accumulated his wealth from buying tech companies in the early 2000s. He recently made his entrance in real estate in Florida and New York. Arthur has been a silent money partner who has been seen to back up Michael Stern and Kevin Maloney’s billionaire’s row development at West 57th Street. He invested in a 16 story condo building in Sullivan Street which was developed by Maloney and Robert Gladstone’s Madison equities. The developers transferred three nearby Sullivan Street townhouses to Becker in exchange for a stake in the project. Becker’s business dealings are massive spanning finance, technology art, and real estate. As Arthur Becker stated, he is more concentrated in real estate; he is lucky he got into the market at the right time. His many businesses have produced several failures one of them being an attempt to market a specialized binocular dubbed Bnox. According to Becker, the reason the binocular did not sell is because people did not like fiddling with the focus.

Becker is also known for collecting ancient currencies from African countries such as Cameroon and Nigeria. Two of his largest reproductions will be installed in a capital properties commercial building in Boston. In Becker’s art, there is always money, be it in the form of dollars or euros. In his office, there is a sculpture of crumpled cash and gold bars. Check out Bloomberg to know more.

Success Elementary Schools approach teaching young children with a new, organic approach to learning. The elementary school curriculum we embrace is set to help children fall in love with learning from a young age by promoting early literacy of reading both fiction and nonfiction alike.

Reading fosters literacy skills as well as memory and a growing desire ant thirst for knowledge that children will continue to foster as they grow through our elementary school program. After reading a piece, the children will collaborate with each other on classroom-wide projects and will improve their vital critical thinking skills that will help them be successful later on in their academic careers. The foundation of knowledge at the Success Learning Academy is asking questions, learning more information, and growing the knowledge the child has already obtained through reading by exploring and obtaining more information. This can provide children with a cultural and a learning experience they may not otherwise be able to have without the literacy and the reading that emerged early in their learning careers.

Teachers at our Success Academy only provide young learners with 80 minutes of direct instruction scattered throughout the day, but those 80 minutes are made to count. Every last one of them. Throughout the entire day learning through activity is emphasized as this is how children are proven to learn best. Experiencing new things and experimenting with new things will teach them the most in the time that we have together each day in the classroom. Lectures are effective to some extent but are not the way children should be predominantly learning at a young age. Attention spans cause children to become distracted, whereas engagement in critical thinking activities will keep their attention much longer than any lectures will in the long run, and they will retain and learn more to build a more solid foundation for the future.
